A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and a steady vertical rhythm. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and shoulders a subtly squared softness rather than pure circularity. Strokes keep an even thickness with clean joins and mostly straight, clipped terminals, producing crisp silhouettes and consistent spacing. The lowercase is compact and readable with open apertures, while numerals follow the same narrow, upright construction for a cohesive texture in running text.
This face works well where horizontal space is limited and strong vertical rhythm is desired, such as headlines, subheads, and poster typography. It can also suit packaging and wayfinding/signage applications that benefit from a clean, condensed look and clear character silhouettes at display sizes.
The overall tone is contemporary and efficient, with a slightly technical, engineered feel from the squared-round construction. Its narrow stance and disciplined drawing create an editorial seriousness that reads as modern and no-nonsense rather than expressive or playful.
The design appears aimed at delivering a space-saving sans with a modern, slightly technical flavor, using superelliptic rounding to balance precision with friendliness. The consistent monoline drawing and condensed proportions suggest an emphasis on clear, economical display typography and compact text settings.
The sample text shows a tight, uniform color at larger sizes, with condensed forms stacking neatly without feeling overly compressed. Rounded corners soften the otherwise straight-sided structure, keeping the texture approachable while maintaining a precise, streamlined appearance.
